Call for Abstracts: AGU 2026 Annual Meeting, Session H124: "Multi-Scale Modeling of Drought-to-Flood Transitions"

[Kaustav Mondal]

Dear All,

I am thrilled to announce that we are hosting a session at #AGU26, and I’m honored to serve as a convener for Session H124: Sensitivity and Uncertainty Characterization in Multi-Scale Modeling of Drought-to-Flood Transitions.
Rapid hydroclimatic "whiplash"—the abrupt transition between extreme drought and severe flooding—is a critical challenge for prediction and water resource management. If your research explores this cascading extreme, we want to hear from you!
We are looking for contributions involving:
·        Modeling Frameworks: Physics-based, data-driven, or hybrid (AI/ML/surrogate) models.
·        Hydrodynamic Approaches: 1D–2D simulations and coupled models across global, regional, or hyperlocal scales.
·        Statistical Methods: Index-based modeling (SPI, SPEI, SSMI, SRI, SSI).
·        Data & Observation: Large-scale operational datasets (GLOFAS, GFS), sensor-based data, or in-situ observations to enhance model evaluation.
·        Core Themes: Uncertainty quantification, parameter sensitivity, and process-based insights into drought-to-flood and flood-to-drought propagation.
Event: AGU 2026 Annual Meeting | Dec 7-11, 2026 Location: San Francisco, CA, USA & Online (Hybrid Event)
Important Dates & Deadlines:
·        5 August – Abstract submissions close
·        20 August – Abstracts scheduled in allocated sessions
·        Late-August – Attendee registration and housing opens
·        Early-September – Sessions scheduled and program schedule finalized

Virtual Attendance: Can't make it to California? AGU 2026 is fully hybrid. You can register, submit, and present your research online.
We look forward to engaging in exciting discussions on the future of hydrology monitoring, risk reduction, and climate resilience!

The Conveners—
Prof. Subhankar Karmakar (Professor, Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay)
Dr. Ajay Gupta (Postdoctoral Fellow, Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay)
Dr. Jagriti Jain (Postdoctoral Fellow, Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay)
Dr. Kaustav Mondal (Senior Researcher, Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay)

Thank you.

Regards,
